One such fascinating form of architecture is Brutalism. Brutalism is an architectural style developed taking inspiration from the modernist architectural movement and flourished from the 1950s to the 1970s. But here comes the interesting part, brutalism explores architecture in form of angular geometric structures made from poured concrete. It grew very much as <strong>r<\/strong>econstruction projects of the post-war era. The term was coined by the pioneer modern architect and painter Le Corbusier from the word \u2018beton brut\u2019 which means raw concrete in French. Brutalist design is trimmed to bare minimum stripped back with no decoration as such with the material, usually concrete,  speaking for itself. Read more about it here in the <em>Magical Brut<\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Brutalist architecture involves buildings with plastered raw concrete and trimmed of any &#8216;extra decorations&#8217;; making the building look simple. Brutalist architecture has a direct relationship with the 2nd world war. Brutalists wanted to be honest about the materials used, stripping off all the decorations and trimming it down to the simple concrete plastered surface built in a strict and structured geometrical manner. Celebrating the purest form of materials and form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/collage-3.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"406\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/collage-3.png?resize=406%2C640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-106511\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/collage-3.png?w=406&amp;ssl=1 406w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/collage-3.png?resize=190%2C300&amp;ssl=1 190w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 406px) 100vw, 406px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Halls of residence at the University of East Anglia.

Brutalism then went very out of style often regarded as harsh or ugly, yet more recently it is really being re-accessed and re-appreciated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/collage-1.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"406\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/collage-1.png?resize=406%2C640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-106513\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/collage-1.png?w=406&amp;ssl=1 406w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/collage-1.png?resize=190%2C300&amp;ssl=1 190w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 406px) 100vw, 406px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Balfron Tower in London.

This year it has successfully completed 40 years of its journey and to celebrate its success,  a book called Building Uthopia: The Barbican Centre is coming out. The book unfolds the opinions of critics such as Fiona Maddockson music, Lyn Gardner on theatre, Tony Chambers on visual arts, Sukhdev Sandhu on cinema, to name a few; to give their individual opinion on their specialised areas. Also, it includes the tale of Barbican Art Centre since the beginning and how it has faced difficulties throughout time and stood up as one of the most appreciated architectures in the history of time.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Book-cover-1.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"580\" height=\"761\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Book-cover-1.jpg?resize=580%2C761&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-106515\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Book-cover-1.jpg?w=780&amp;ssl=1 780w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Book-cover-1.jpg?resize=229%2C300&amp;ssl=1 229w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Book-cover-1.jpg?resize=768%2C1008&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">The cover image, <em>Building Utopia: The Barbican Centre<\/em> by Nicholas Kenyon (ed) published by Batsford.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Building Utopia: The Barbican Centre<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">The title of the book <em>Building Utopia<\/em> comes from the utopian vision of rebuilding the Barbican.

It also houses a library, three restaurants, and a&nbsp;conservatory. It is surrounded by the &nbsp;Barbican Estate; a residential complex of around 2,000 flats, maisonettes, and houses<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Lakeside-Terrace-after-1.jpeg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"580\" height=\"387\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Lakeside-Terrace-after-1.jpeg?resize=580%2C387&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-106518\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Lakeside-Terrace-after-1.jpeg?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Lakeside-Terrace-after-1.jpeg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Lakeside-Terrace-after-1.jpeg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">The Barbican Archive.

But after the German bomb attack, it took a while to re-imagine and develop The Barbican Art Centre. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">The building of Barbican can be dated back to the year 1955. Where the proposal was put up with the Corporation of London, which finally gets approved in the year 1959. In 1960, along with the Royal Shakespeare Company and London Symphony Orchestra, the planning of Barbican started. After a lot of planning and re-working, the construction work began in the year 1971 and was grandly inaugurated on 3rd March 1982 by the Her Majesty The Queen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/img20210325_17154810-2.jpeg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"580\" height=\"397\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/img20210325_17154810-2.jpeg?resize=580%2C397&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-106519\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/img20210325_17154810-2.jpeg?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/img20210325_17154810-2.jpeg?resize=300%2C205&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/img20210325_17154810-2.jpeg?resize=768%2C526&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>  <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Barbican Archive.
